Is It Good That Silver Dental Amalgam Fillings Often Outlast Natural Teeth?


Nashville area dentist, Dr. Kent E. White approaches dentistry comprehensively. Wherever a patient is able to start from on their dental care, he can move ahead at that point.

Dentistry is most expensive when smile health is delayed. It's not possible to x-ray through silver-mercury dental fillings - so dentists are not able to see the decay, disease, etc - underneath.

Plus the bigger metal fillings are more likely to crack or in some cases also split apart. One vital idea to remember, pain is often the last thing to notify you that something is wrong.

Dr. Kent White's Dental Bio, Health Approach Highlights

“Staying informed and constantly training means providing patients the best care available.”
Dr. Kent E. White • Center for Advanced Dentistry

Nashville Dentist,
Kent White
Caring Expertise
By training at this pace and level, Dr. Kent White is able to offer patients a wide variety of high value services. His skilled care, long-term perspective and artistic flair result in achieving what each patient deserves, which is his only goal.

Comprehensive Foundation & Unique Expertise
Dr. White has been a Las Vegas Institute (LVI) for Advanced Dental Studies Senior Instructor – a position achieved through his aesthetic, reconstructive and neuromuscular dentistry expertise.

In 1999, he became a Neuromuscular Dentistry instructor at LVI – the youngest dentist to attain that status.

In 1995, he completed a yearlong elective hospital and implant residency program at the University of Miami School of Medicine in Florida. He practiced as a clinical chemist for a year and a half, after receiving his BS in Chemistry from MTSU. Then he went on to receive his DDS from UT, Memphis School of Dentistry.

Advanced Oral Health & Enhanced Smile Confidence 

Biomimetics
A significant ‘wedge’ issue in cracking teeth and hiding disease, is the metal of traditional dentistry. In contrast, Dr. White expertly utilizes all the advanced, healthy techniques including bonding and natural-looking solutions. This treatment ‘seals out’ biological, and prevents, structural failure: the reason for the most serious dental problems people face today.

Neuromuscular
Dr. White has unique expertise in this approach, which looks at other causes for neuromuscular pain and prevention of pain, before focusing all the attention on teeth. While neuromuscular dentistry is not new, the diagnostic technology has finally caught up with the treatment. When face and jaw muscles are not in correct balance, it affects the muscles of the head, neck, shoulders and back. Determining the proper resting posture achieves pain free results, bringing harmony to oral muscles and health, beauty and patient’s lives.

Restorative & Reconstructive
 “Our goal is to restore teeth back to their original health, strength and beauty in the most conservative manner possible,” explains Dr. White. “We’re finding that, given the choice, most people would prefer this type of care rather than what is currently being taught in most dental schools.” He was one of the first dentists in North America to undertake the intensive hands-on training involved in the Full Mouth Reconstructive Training at LVI, the World’s Premier Post-Graduate teaching center.

Aesthetics
Dr. White’s expertise provides a comprehensive platform in improving smile confidence by focusing on long-term health and natural-looking beauty. Success is achieved with a high level proficiency in both ‘cosmetic’ and reconstructive dentistry. He pioneered the use of metal-free ceramics and porcelain for crowns and veneers and resin restorative procedures instead of metal fillings.

Alternative
As a member of the Academy of Oral Medicine and Toxicology, Dr. White is very interested in therapies that promote healing and health. He believes patients should have options that don’t create other health concerns. For those who worry about silver/mercury fillings, Dr. White only uses newer, healthier therapies. This philosophy guides his treatment in every way from home care to ongoing professional care.

Sandy S. Writes,


I just wanted to send a note to let you know what a difference my new smile has made in my life. As cheesy as that sounds, I can’t fully explain this with words and for people who have not had to experience this then I don’t know that they would fully understand. I don’t think an e-mail is going to adequately describe this but I thought I would try to jot some things down so that you can use any or all of this as a testimonial. 


Sandy's Before and After Smile Photos
My experience with the whole process has been extremely easy and virtually pain free. Initially, I was very nervous about the entire process as you know and it took me some time to decide based on the financial investment. 


You guys did a phenomenal job! I appreciate your personal attention to my needs and wants and all the hard work that you all put into helping me. 


I would recommend Dr. White and your office to anyone. I feel very fortunate that I stumbled across your website. So thank you very much for making my smile makeover such an easy experience. 


I can’t even describe the change this has made in my outlook and attitude. The physical appearance is obvious, but the change in my countenance and confidence level has been dramatic. So dramatic even my closet friends have commented on it. 


While I feel that I was a happy and confident person before, I don’t think that I displayed it in my attitude or the way that I carried myself. And now my confidence and happiness is very evident. 


The ease with which I can smile now and feel confident about my smile is incredible. I have had people I work with joke with me and tell me that I look way too happy now and that I smile too much. My family, friends and coworkers have all been very supportive of me, and this change. 
Sandy's 'After'  Smile Portrait - Dentistry by Dr. White
You know that I have lived with the tetracycline staining for 36 years. This past summer for the first time in my life, I have had people that I don’t even know actually comment on what a pretty smile that I have. Again, I hate to be repetitive but what an incredible feeling it is to have anyone compliment me on something that I have been so self-conscious about my entire life.


When we were doing the temporary teeth part of my treatment you asked me if I had any regrets. I can honestly say that I have had no regret at all. The time and money that I have invested have been well worth it and I would do it all over again without any hesitation. If anything, I should have had the smile makeover earlier but maybe it is just all about timing. 


Anyway, I think I have rambled enough. The only other thing that I can say is thank you 
Dr. White and your team.
